32 weeks

So I get larger and larger by the second I feel, but I am getting close to meeting this little guy.  I only have 2 months left! I am super excited! I finally bought a bassinet last weekend and put it together all by myself I am pretty proud lol! Here are some pictures of it.  I had to add a football blanket of course for L, and his love of football.


I also found the cutest Giraffe ever that I had to buy the moment I saw it.  I have this weird obsession with Giraffes and Zebras they are awesome and If it were up to me I would do a safari themed nursery but L loves sports so we are making a combined nursery with both. 


So I also bought some sports themed stuff, I still need some more stuff with the sports themed though.
 I'm having the hardest time picking out stuff I need though. Like a car seat, stroller, crib, changing table, and whatever else I need which I have no idea yet that I need. 

L spoiled me this past week as well he surprised me with some gorgeous flowers! It was such a thoughtful thing to do, I love the flowers they are orange my favorite color!



I suppose I should add another belly photo as well. I don't like these belly photos though cuz I always look so bad, but here is one of me at almost 32 weeks!

Baby Gray weighs 2.6 Pounds!

So I have been doing this new mom study through IMC, and it has been cool becuase I get three extra ultrasounds that I normally would not have gotten.  My last and final visit was on Thursday and it was cool to see how much baby gray has grown.  They said by his measurements that he weight appoximately 2.6 pounds, and that he was growing right on track. They tried doing a couple 3D ultrasounds which turned out okay, but baby gray was being stubborn like his dad and didn't want to give us a good shot.  Here are a few of the pictures they sent me home with.

Other than that I've just been trying to get back into the regular schedule of things.  It has been super hard this week because all last week I was with L, and it is hard to go back to being apart.  Especially because he has been stressed this week, so it is hard to be away from each other.  Its also hard to think that we are spending are last few precious months of just being us two away from each other.  On a positive it has been nice to be home with cute K again.  Its amazing how much you can miss a little dog!!

DisneyWorld Vacation

We went on a trip to Florida this past week, to pick up H, my sister and to visit Disney World and Orlando Studios.  It was a lot of fun, it defiantly was not a relaxing vacation, we were almost constantly on the go, and its not as fun to go to an amusement park when you are pregnant and can't ride any of the fun rides. Here are a few pictures from the trip, I look awful in most of them, so I tried to be in as few as possible.



This was Harry Potter Land, the remade kind of a mix between Hogsmead and Diagon Alley. It was pretty awesome!

The amazing castle! It was huge!

 The Tree of life at Disney Worlds Animal Kingdom park.
 Another few of the castle.
 L, D, and K getting ready to ride the Tower of Terror Ride. This was L's first time at the Disney World so I was excited for him to get to ride all the rides, I just wish I could have riden some of the rides with him.
 The Fam on the Dinosaur ride at Disney World's Animal Kingdom Park.
 I did get to ride on the safari ride which was fun, and we got to see baby elephants which where so cute.
 Dinner in France at Epcot.
                                              L was so tired he fell asleep on its a small world. 
 Splash Mountain I love L in this picture he looks so scared.
 The chef at the restaurant we ate at in France.
 The Fam waiting in line for a fun ride I couldn't go on lol.
 Waiting in line for something at Epcot.
 The Giraffes on the safari ride. They walked right by the car it was awesome.
 The Fam on the Tower Terror.

It was a super fun vacation. But the best part was just spending time with L, because we hadn't seen each other sense April 1st.  It had been way too long to be away from each other.  Unfortunately, I won't see him for another few weeks, but luckily it won't be as long as the first time we were apart.  Hopefully with the start of summer coming and the time winding down for when Baby Gray will get here time will go bye a little quicker. I feel way far behind I haven't even started buying anything that we will need for little Baby Gray, and I am just about to start the third and final trimester.

Another Baby Post!

So I had my 20 week ultrasound, on Friday and everything was looking good they said.  Here are some pictures from the visit.  It was kind of annoying because they kept taking pictures of like random body parts, and I was like can't I just have a picture of the stuff I can tell what it is.  So these are the ones that I can tell what they are lol. 
 Baby Gray's Head, and Profile he is starting to look less like an alien! I am so excited. 
 Here is a foot if you look closely you can see the toes!
Here is another picture of Baby Gray's Head! It is round and he is starting to look like a baby! I am so excited to meet this little guy.  So I really want to start putting together a nursery but, I'm still only halfway and plus we don't know where we will be living when this little guy comes.  So I have just been day dreaming and looking online for good ideas here are a few I like so far.  Its hard because I don't know what type of style I want to go for.

I love the bright colors on this decor.
I love the canopy in this nursery.
 I know this nursery is for a girl but I love the crib I think it is so cute!



I love the animals in this nursery especially the elephent stool!


I love how relaxing this nursery is, and it is so elegent.

As you can tell my taste and ideas are all over the place.  I also am in love with those outrageously adorable baby hats. Like these:


I love them they are so adorable I want to buy every single one I see! Plus, I've been trying to do anything to keep my mind off of how much I miss L and how I just want to go be with him.  It is taking a lot of self control to stay here and not leave to go be with him.  It has only been two weeks and it seriously has felt like a month! I'm not sure how much longer I can make it! It helps having this little girl with me thought.

Sad Day!

So L left today to go out to Fort Wayne Indiana, to start the summer selling season off.  Its been a rough week to say the least.  We decided together that it probably wasn't the smartest idea to have me go out with him this summer, because they would be moving around a lot.  That would mean getting a new OBGYN ever visit, or flying back every four weeks for a visit.  I would have to leave my wonderful job, which would mean only one income coming in, and plus i'm due on August 30th, and I didn't want to chance having the baby out there. But, needless to say I am very heartbroken, I plan on going out and visited L at least once a month if I can swing it, but it sucks having your best friend and husband across the contry especially when you are almost 20 weeks pregnant. 

Speaking of our baby... we found out that we are having a baby boy! L is so thrilled and so am I.  L has already started me on a protein filled diet, so our baby can come out of the womb ready to work out.  Lol just kidding (kind of). 

Baby Boy Gray's cute little spine!
 Already so much like his dad! Showing off his bicep!
 I thought I'd take a belly picture, don't laugh, I know I'm getting huge! This is me at 18 weeks!
If you look closely you can see the baby's heart in the little black circle in his chest.  He is getting so big! I am so anxious to meet the little guy.

So we have been trying to think of names and we have come up with a few, L loves Terrell Daven Gray.   I love Daven, but I haven't been sold on Terrell yet.  L came up with Trey Dailey Gray yesterday which I really like the name Trey.  But we will see I don't know if I want to actually decide until I see him.  I'm one of those I want to look at him first before I name him types of people I guess.
